Contextual Overview
1 Around this time, Hizkiyahu became ill to the point of death. Yesha‘yahu the prophet, the son of Amotz, came and said to him, "Here is what Adonai says: ‘Put your house in order, because you are going to die; you will not live.'" 2 Hizkiyahu turned his face toward the wall and prayed to Adonai : 3 "I plead with you, Adonai , remember now how I have lived before you truly and wholeheartedly, and how I have done what you see as good." And he cried bitter tears. 4 Before Yesha‘yahu had left the city's middle courtyard, the word of Adonai came to him: 5 "Go back, and tell Hizkiyahu the prince of my people, that this is what Adonai , the God of David your ancestor, says: ‘I have heard your prayer and seen your tears, and I will heal you. On the third day, you are to go up to the house of Adonai . 6 I will add fifteen years to your life. Also I will rescue you and this city from the power of the king of Ashur; I will defend this city for my own sake and for my servant David's sake.'" 7 Then Yesha‘yahu said, "Prepare a fig-plaster." They brought it and laid it on the inflammation, so that he would recover. 8 Hizkiyahu said to Yesha‘yahu, "What sign will there be that Adonai will heal me and that I will be able to go up to the house of Adonai on the third day?" 9 Yesha‘yahu said, "Here is the sign for you from Adonai that Adonai will do what he said: do you want the shadow [of the sundial] to go forward ten intervals or backward ten intervals? 10 Hizkiyahu answered, "It's easy for the shadow to go down ten intervals. No, let the shadow return backward ten intervals."
